ECG diagnosis


CAP

So.....

The ECG looks nondiagnostic. There's not much information provided. I'd like to know a little more about the H&P to get an idea of whether this is potentially ACS, because a description of "chest pain" without any clarification leaves a lot of ddx on the table. It might be nice to risk-stratify this patient.

If there's a reasonable suspicion of ACS, then some biomarkers might be helpful, and might direct us towards transporting to an ICU-capable site.

BT's good, so let's try nitro, effect/no effect? No specific findings at the ECG so let's give the patient a ride to the ER for checkup and blood-samples...
